During the past few days several things have leaked out regarding the conduit end the flow of water which will be rather a surprise to the citizens of Rochester. Oa the strength of this information the following conclusion seems inevitable The conduit never carried 9, 000, 000 gallons of water a day from the time it was laid up to the present moment That statement may seem to be somewhat presumptuous but it is borne out by the facts which are presented below.

It will be remembered that the most generally accepted theory concerning the shortage in the flow of water through the conduit is that the pipe is obstructed. Just what it is obstructed with and where it is obstructed have been the conundrums utiidv nres.sed the matter of the engineer removal on the board. Mora than a week 6 p.m. 0 7 'W p. m.

Mr. Armbruster said last night 4 While, we are In no hurry to make an appointment, I think there is aa engineer right here ia Rochester as able as any Mr. Kuichling. Any talk about a successor is premature, however, and the board wiil look th ground over carefully before taking any action. James O.

Tubbs had in the opinion of many people successfully operated the water works for years. The board at bo critical a time feared to make a change uutil there could be no doubt that the publio sentiment was in advance of that action. The members yesterday decided that the time had come. They were hastened in this decision bv two external reasons. Doubtless the Chamber of meeting called for this even TO SUMMER TOURISTS.

S33 Alexander Btreet and David Clancy, who lives at No. 102 Clarissa street, knew certain things about the conduit that might to be interesting to readers of tho Democrat and Chronicle. He accordingly called on the gentlemen. Mr. Hows was first visited and asked if he knew anything about obstructions in the conduit line.

Mr. Howe it may be stated, was boss of a gang which worked repairing opposite N. J. station. J.

Mr. Rafter has beea ia praotical charge of the works for some time, and he has worked faithfully to cut 68 the city is fortunate ia having ia the ater Works Department an engineer as energetio and at the same time as careful as Mr. Rafter has shown himself to be, in his reuer.B delicate and important test of the conduit and tho work he has done in Saving water. To save 3, 000, 000 gallons in three days in July with the conduit running only six and a half millions, in a good showing, and Mr. Rafter deserves the thanks of every good citizen, and particularly of those whose.

Buppiy of water would certainly bo absolutely cut off, if domestic use should be imperilled. Better run on a short supply for a month than to be out of water a day. Others express an opinion in favor of obtaining some engineer from outside who will bo equally or more able to obtain aa additional supply and to take care of the department on business principles. With the removal of Mr. Tubbs, there is soma change ia the condition of tbe water supply question.

As matters now stand no one doubts the need of more water, and of prompt action toward securing it. The Chamber of Commerce meeting called for to-night will discuss the question at length. An agreement will likely be reached under which the association will commit itself iu favor of on en TTfla tfiVpn Ttoqfiossion of its new home in the TOWN TALK Young Mon's Christian Association Building and is prepared to receive visitors.

In response to the reporter's questions he said, "I worked on the conduit line for a long time and had charge of the gang of men.

My work was to repair the leaks caused by the broken bells, etc. after the water was first turned into the pipe. I know of my own knowluge that there is in that pipe a large quantity of blocks of wood such as are put under the pipe and also a lot of lead which ran into the pipe when joints were being run.

A meeting of the Board of Managers of the Btate Industrial School was called for yesterday afternoon. A quorum could not be obtained and the meeting was adjourned down city consumption. Mr. iubbss strongly indicated opinion was anything but favorable to the success of Mr. Rafter's plans.

The situation soon grew so embarrassing that the board saw the city's interest demanded a change. It was pretty clear that Mr. Tubbs would not resign of his own will a solution of the difficulty which had been hoped for and tho only thing remaining wa3 to ask him to resign. This was the state of affairs which confronted the Executive Board at its meeting yesterday morning. At once after organizing it took the question of Mr.

Tubbs's re-removal under consideration. After a short conference Chairman Armbruster was delegated to see Mr. Tubbs and tell him that unless his resignation was handed iu the board would remove him. Mr. Arm- tne managr8 to nave us iiosinrn lu.s kkriu still more clearly defined.

I also saw a large number of blocks of wood in the conduit at different times and they must be there yet. I tell you that there is any quantity of wood and lead and things like that in that pipe and I know It for I saw it go in myself.

Later the reporter called on Mr. Clanoy. That gentleman was asked what he knew about obstructions in the pipe and he said that there was no doubt in his mind that the conduit was obstructed by blocks of wood such as are used to block up the pipe, and lead. Said Mr. Clancy with Mrs.

I have crawled into the pipe five or six hundred feet and taken out blocks but there were many that I could not get out. I once found some blocks wedged across the pipe by a manhole and I don't doubt that there are some wedged that way now.

Then there is undoubtedly a lot of lead on the bottom of the pipe. This is all due to the carelessness of the contractors who had the work in charge. I tell you some of that work was done in a pretty slipshod manner and there is where the trouble came in.

Nelson Tubbs. The letter was placed in Mr. Neville's hands to be presented to the board at once. When the members separated at 1 o'clock they expected to hold a short session later in the afternoon to consider and probably accept the resignation. Messrs.

Armbruster and Barnard were present, but Mr. Aldridge did not come. The others waited until 5 :30 o'clock and then left the rooms. The resignation has not. therefore, been presented to the board.

It still remains in the hands of the clerk and the members themselves have not seen it. The board will consider it among other business at this morning's session. It will, without doubt, be accepted. The only contingency was ex Carroll, Beadle Co. OF LOVJ Lima Seminary Alumni.

There is no doubt whatever that there are lots of obstructions of this kind in the pipe.

This spot was pointed out pressed last night by Chairman Armbruster in the following words: "If the publio should strongly urge us to retain Mr. Tubbs, we will not accept his resignation at once. J.
